Volume 5: Chapter 28: The Scarlet Arm (I)

9 [Blood Red Arm (I)]

The person in front of him had extremely slender arms and fingers, his body was terrifyingly white bones, his face was tightly covered, and the hem of his white coat floated in the air.

"Demeter ......"

The name Demeter comes from the ancient Greek mythology of Olympus, one of the twelve main gods, who was the goddess who mastered agriculture and grain. She can give life to the earth and allow all things to grow, or she can do the opposite.

"What the hell is your purpose?"

I said it harshly.

"Purposeβ€”β€”? Hahahahahaha ”

Demeter laughed.

Noble?

"Why are you here?"

"Appearβ€”β€”? It's hilarious. This was originally my territory, but it was your expansion of the campus that took my land and trespassed on my territory. ”

Demeter's arms were outstretched, and her arms were at least twice as long as her body.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

This is the land of Demeter?

"I'm pretending to be a ghost here, just to scare the people here and organize the invasion and expansion of human beings. In the past, I occupied the entire Minato City and Qianshan City, but now I am being forced to this place step by step, so I am left with this place. ”

Demeter tilted her head and made the sound of bones grinding.

"To tell you the truth, I am a disadvantage in the fight against humanity. It's not just me, all the gods of the Fear realm are at a disadvantage. With the development of human science and technology, they have more and more powerful technology to arm themselves, and human beings have less and less fear and reverence for nature, and even, it is about to disappear. I pretended to be a fool of myself, and soon there were a lot of drone detectors that were able to detect all that was left of the area. I caused tsunamis, typhoons, and humanity will soon find new technologies to stop them. I interfere with this area, so that the earth withers, the grass does not grow, everything withers, and the water dries up! However, nothing can stop humans, who have invented new technologies and even planted a dense forest here - it is unimaginable that humans are truly unimaginably powerful. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

I didn't know what to say, so I just listened to a god.

"In the past, the gods could do anythingβ€”and now, we're even just a nice-to-have. The supreme god of wrath was the first to give some of his abilities to human beings, making them ordinary gods, allowing human beings to change the world, superpowers became reality, and human beings were no longer afraid of this surreal thing, but began to accept and use it. In this battle to seize the world. The four emotions: joy, anger, sadness, and fear all want to get a piece of the pie. Of the four emotions, anger is the result, the others may lead to anger, and the emotion of fear is just a starting gun. The emotion of fear will definitely become the other three feelings, no one will end up with fear, and even for many 'fear' things, people can face it head-on and not be afraid of fear. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"There will always be people like that, obviously scared, but always doing it. So among these four emotions, we are extremely disadvantaged. ”

"So ......"

"So we want to get help from other emotions β€” like you."

"Me?"

"You are a very special being, as a subordinate of anger, but not controlled by anger, to maintain your own rationality, this is rare."

β€œοΌŸβ€

Perhaps, I still have a hard time understanding what he said.

"According to my speculation, the God of Wrath has given you such great power in order to direct you to the emotions of [anger], let anger control you, and use your great power to destroy the existing order in this world."

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Butβ€”but it never did, perhaps because you were resisting it."

"Even so, why do I have to help you?"

"God of Destruction - This world will eventually be ruled by a supreme god, just like the Ryukyu Islands in the past. It has no external resistance, but it has more wealth than it can imagine. It must be a thorn in the side of the four supreme gods, and there is no way for humans to change this fact. It's just – you can choose who to rule. ”

Demeter's words were unusually harsh.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Why...... What are you kidding, why do we have to be ruled by others? ”

"Because you don't have a choice, the four gods are like chess players in the universe, and you, your world, are just pawns. A pawn that will definitely be annexed. In order to play, the four gods will definitely use all their resources to enhance their strength. The most powerful of them all, the God of Wrath, has laid a net in this world. Domination of the world is inevitable. ”

Demeter said, I remembered the dark shadow that appeared behind me yesterday because of my anger, a little more distant, I even remembered the day of Christmas, when the black enveloped Qianshan City. The black smoke, the closer it gets, the angry feelings gush out.

Goosebumps were running over me, and now I felt creepy.

"That'...... Is it the power of the wrathful god? ”

"The [God of Dread] used to be very strong, but now it is gradually declining, and only a powerful shell remains, strong on the outside and dry in the middle."

"And what about the remaining two gods?"

"The [God of Sorrows] is second only to the God of Wrath, but he is quite cautious and engrosses himself in his own construction, rarely interfering in the struggle of the remaining three gods. The strength of the [God of Joy] is developing rapidly, and fear should be ranked last among the four gods. ”

Demeter smiled wryly.

"This world is the key, and if you master this world, you may be able to turn the tables around."

"Ehβ€”I don't know or be interested in your strife. I just want to ask, did you manipulate Liu Xin? ”

I interrupted her.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Liu Xin? Ah, that little girl, I can't talk about manipulation, I just talked to her a little bit. ”

"Really? Then there is nothing to talk about. ”

With a thud, my body squirted at Demeter and raised my fist.

10 [Xu Yexin's perspective]

Xiao Xu - Where did you go?!

Worst!

I'm so distraught right now that I can't wait to turn on the electromagnetic shock bomb and blow it all up. I don't know why the launch always fails, but according to my agreement with the Hong Kong Association, in theory, as long as we don't contact them for half an hour, they will send more people to investigate here.

But the current situation, even more people - presumably will not help.

"Get down!"

I shouted, the wind chimes dodged their fists quickly, and the little girl, instead of the fear she had imagined, responded calmly and composurely.

At the same time as Xiao Xu and the Fear Lion disappeared, an arm suddenly flew in the distance. Fortunately, Qiao Mu reacted quickly and barely dodged, and then his arm smashed into the wall behind him like an armor-piercing bullet.

The walls were smashed and deformed, but not damaged.

This wall is extremely resilient, and according to the attached god - this is the end of the world. Then this world is too small!

I ran, left and right, using the corners that were everywhere to defend myself, and thanks to the wall in a way, I didn't have to worry about something suddenly coming through the wall.

"Wind Chimes β€”β€”?"

The wind chimes were beside me, panting.

The only ones who are still shooting are Seven and Xi Ning.

"Go this way!"

Qiao Mu instructed.

"This is the same bloody arm that appeared yesterday, and it was it that finally pierced the wall, causing a great vortex of air currents."

Wind Chimes said as he ran.

"Can this thing punch through walls?"

"He doesn't start fast, but his speed increases exponentially in the later stages."

"Big trouble - is there a way to catch him?"

"That's what Xiao Xu did yesterday."

Wind Chimes said.

…… Xiao Xu's high-intensity body may be able to catch him head-on, but if it were us, it would be almost impossible to do it.

I thought about it for a moment.

"If there was a protective shield of number seven, maybe it would be ......"

I said to myself.

"Huh-"

"Put it like this, WBS-3 type to you, number seven to the protective shield, I'll find a way to catch him, and then use the WFZS simulator to stick him to the wall, attach the god and then transfer me to escape, because I don't know how long it can last, you, Qiao Mu and Xi Ning, see the time to use the electromagnetic shock bomb to destroy him."

Ye Xin said to everyone in WEA-2 style.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Well, that's a good idea. ”

Qiao Mu replied.

"Ok, it's decided-Seven, Xi Ning, withdraw to the safe area!"

You must not lose.

Made up my mind.
